Byron Buxton Joins 2025 MLB Home Run Derby
Byron Buxton, a Minnesota Twins outfielder and Georgia native, has been announced as the fourth entrant in the 2025 MLB Home Run Derby, joining Ronald Acuña Jr., Cal Raleigh, and James Wood at Truist Park in Atlanta on July 14. Buxton, a two-time All-Star with 20 home runs this season, will compete in his home state, while Acuña Jr. returns for his third Derby appearance at his home ballpark. Cal Raleigh, the current home run leader, will make his Derby debut, aiming to become the first Mariner to win since Ken Griffey Jr. Notable sluggers such as Pete Alonso, Kyle Schwarber, and Bobby Witt Jr. have declined to participate this year, opening the competition for a new champion. The Derby retains its eight-player, three-round, timed format as a highlight of MLB All-Star festivities. High ticket demand continues, with prices ranging from $400 to over $18,000.
